Your Harbor Country Getaway Awaits!
Tucked away in a quiet beach-town neighborhood, 18855 Lonergan is the perfect blend of relaxed coastal living and prime location—just minutes from New Buffalo's beaches, boutique shopping, restaurants, wine trails, and antique shops. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend retreat, or an income-producing short-term rental, this 4-bed/3-bath home offers it all.

The 1,695 sq ft spacious layout includes a main-level primary with attached bath, 2 additional bedrooms on the main floor, and a large 2nd-level guest suite/bonus room with walk-in closet and private bath—ideal for hosting friends and family. The open kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances, an eat-in bar, and flows into the cozy living room with a gas fireplace. Step outside to your own private oasis: a fully fenced backyard on a wooded lot with mature perennials and a generous deck for outdoor dining, lounging, or evening bonfires under the stars. Plenty of space for a pool or hot tub. Built in 2002 and well-maintained with newer A/C and furnace, this home also features a main-floor laundry room and attached 2-car garage.

This is Harbor Country living at its best- laid-back, low-maintenance, and full of potential! Whether you're looking for a primary home, vacation retreat, or short-term rental investment, this property offers flexibility, comfort, and value in a highly desirable area.
